While I'm starting to think no Ticket to Ride map will ever come close to the awesomeness of the Team Asia map, this one is definitely a keeper. The bridge tolls add one more thing to think about but don't add much complexity at all. It also appears that you can take a couple strategies on the tolls as well, because it is possible to just outscore other players strictly with destination tickets, so you might disregard the toll bonuses altogether. The map is beautiful, and I like that you can play it without using any special rules as well if you want. I only have 2 minor nitpicks with this expansion map. First of all, the box insert of the expansion doesn't have a hole big enough for the bag of toll tokens. Not a huge deal, but kind of annoying. Secondly, and considerably more irritating, the font on the destination cards is much different from the font on the board, making it difficult to locate the cities quickly. However, minor complaints aside, this is a quality map and I'll be keeping it unlike a couple of the other Ticket to Ride expansion maps.

Initially I enjoyed this game, but after a few plays I have become very dissatisfied with the end bonus cards - a swing of a few coins can make a 50-point swing in scores, and that's just too much of a random factor. In our last game, two players built their initial tickets, then just built cheap (long) connections to run their supply of trains out. And won by a mile. That's not an interesting game for me.

I like this one, mostly because my roots are Dutch. It also adds some game-play changes with the cost tokens.
